Episode Description
<p>Do you constantly feel like you need to control <em>everything</em> in your life? Like if you could just be more organized, more productive, more <em>perfect</em>, then you’d finally feel at peace? What if the real secret to feeling more fulfilled was actually letting go of that control? </p><p>This week, I’m joined by Oliver Burkeman, author of 4,000 Weeks, to talk about why embracing our limits—not fighting them—is the key to a more meaningful life. Oliver and I dive into our culture’s obsession with productivity and perfection, why it actually makes us more anxious, and how to stop chasing an impossible standard and start spending your precious time in a way that actually matters. If you’re ready to stop feeling like life is a never-ending to-do list, this episode is for you.</p><p>Get full show notes, transcript, and more information here: <a href="https://schoolofnewfeministthought.com/384" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://schoolofnewfeministthought.com/384</a></p>
